A Mountain Resort Below Śnieżka
Karpacz lies on the northern slopes of the Giant Mountains, below Śnieżka, at 1,603 m the highest peak of the range, on the border between Poland and the Czech Republic. It is one of the best-known mountain resorts in Poland, with ski slopes in winter and walking trails in summer, and the Karkonosze National Park begins just above the town.
Its most famous sight is the Vang church, a wooden Norwegian stave church from around 1200 that was taken apart in Norway and rebuilt here in the 1840s. A chairlift runs up to Kopa, a popular starting point for the walk to Śnieżka. With skis, boots and family luggage, a private car takes you right to your hotel door.

Stopover Tip
Liberec, with its grand town hall and the Ještěd tower on the mountain above the city, is a short detour on the way. Add it as a stop and your driver waits while you look around.
Fares, waiting and larger groups
We Offer Three Fares
Waiting Charge
If the driver waits for you or you book a multi-stop transfer, for example while you visit one city before continuing to another, a waiting charge is added to your fare.
Minivan Special Offer
Many airport taxis take only three passengers and may not fit large bags in a sedan. We take groups of up to four passengers with their luggage in a larger vehicle at a special price: choose “Minivan” (4 seats) when you book online. The offer does not apply to groups of five or more, who travel by minibus at the standard price.
